Abstract
Heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) are the main carcinogens produced during thermal processing of protein-rich foods. In this paper, a composite aerogel (TOCNFCa) with a stabilized dual-network structure was prepared via a template for the in-situ synthesis of UiO-66 on cellulose for the adsorption of HAAs in food. The dual-network structure of TOCNFCa provides the composite aerogel with excellent wet strength, maintaining excellent compressive properties. With the in-situ grown UiO-66 content up to 71.89 wt%, the hierarchical porosity endowed TOCNFCa@UiO-66 with the ability to rapidly adsorb HAAs molecules with high capacity (1.44-5.82 μmol/g). Based on excellent thermal stability, adsorption capacity and anti-interference, TOCNFCa@UiO-66 achieved satisfactory recoveries of HAAs in the boiled marinade, which is faster and more economical than the conventional SPE method. Moreover, TOCNFCa@UiO-66 could maintain 84.55 % of the initial adsorption capacity after 5 times of reuse.

Abstract
Heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs), arising as chemical derivatives during the high-temperature culinary treatment of proteinaceous comestibles, exhibit notable carcinogenic potential. In this paper, a composite aerogel (AGD-UiO-66) with high-capacity and fast adsorption of HAAs was made with anchoring defective UiO-66 (D-UiO-66) mediated by lauric acid on the backbone of cellulose nanofibers (CNF). AGD-UiO-66 with hierarchical porosity reduced the mass transfer efficiency for the adsorption of HAAs and achieved high adsorption amount (0.84-1.05 μmol/g) and fast adsorption (15 min). The isothermal adsorption model demonstrated that AGD-UiO-66 belonged to a multilayer adsorption mechanism for HAAs. Furthermore, AGD-UiO-66 was successfully used to adsorb 12 HAAs in different food (roasted beef, roasted pork, roasted salmon and marinade) with high recoveries of 94.65%-104.43%. The intrinsic potential of AGD-UiO-66 demonstrated that it could be widely applicable to the adsorption of HAAs in foods.

Abstract
Quorum sensing (QS) regulation of functional metabolites is rarely reported but a common trait of some bacteria. In this study, we found that QS promoted the extracellular accumulation of glycine and serine while inhibiting the extracellular accumulation of methionine in Hafnia alvei H4. The correlation analysis of five QS signals with the above three QS-regulated amino acids suggested that these QS signals may have functional differences in amino acid regulation. The exogenous AHL add-back studies on genes involved in glycine, serine, and methionine metabolic pathway highlighted that N-octanoyl-l-homoserine lactone (C8-HSL) downregulated the expression of sdhC/fumA genes involved in the succinate to malate pathway, thereby reducing the metabolic flux of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle as an amino acid metabolism platform. Further in-depth research revealed that the QS system promoted the conversion of folate to tetrahydrofolate (THF) by positively regulating the expression of folA and folM, thus impairing the ability of folate to promote methionine accumulation. Moreover, folate positively regulated the expression of the QS signal synthesis gene luxI, promoting the synthesis of QS signals, which may further enhance the influence of the QS system on amino acid metabolism. These findings contribute to the understanding of amino acid metabolism regulated by QS and provide new perspectives for accurate control of metabolic regulation caused by QS.IMPORTANCEAs one of the important regulatory mechanisms of microorganisms, quorum sensing (QS) is involved in the regulation of various physiological activities. However, few studies on the regulation of amino acid metabolism by QS are available. This study demonstrated that the LuxI-type QS system of Hafnia alvei H4 was involved in the regulation of multiple amino acid metabolism, and different types of QS signals exhibited different roles in regulating amino acid metabolism. Additionally, the regulatory effects of the QS system on amino acid metabolism were investigated from two important cycles that influence the conversion of amino acids, including the TCA cycle and the folate cycle. These findings provide new ideas on the role of QS system in the regulation of amino acid metabolism in organisms.

Abstract
Composite aerogels, formed by the combination of nanoscale polymers and highly efficient adsorbents, offer the potential to deploy adsorbent distinct separation properties into a processable matrix. This paper presents a method for the fabrication of low energy bio-aerogels with high ductility, excellent wet strength and favorable heat resistance, based on cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) bound by calcium carbonate particles (CaCO3) via a simple process of ice induction, cross-linking during freezing and freeze-drying. Due to induced defects, two-dimensional metal-organic layers (MOLs) were rich in mesoporous structure and embedded in the aerogel (AGCa-MOL), which exhibited a powerful adsorption capacity. AGCa-MOL could take full advantage of their hierarchical pores and available surface area to obtain high adsorption capacity (0.694-5.470 μmol/g) and rapid adsorption kinetics (5 min) for 14 heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs). Moreover, the CaCO3 particles and MOLs gave the AGCa-MOL excellent thermal stability, so that it could maintain excellent adsorption capacity at a high temperature (100 °C) and be applied as an adsorbent to remove HAAs in the boiling marinade. The intrinsic potential of composite aerogels was revealed due to the synergistic properties of the various components in the composite aerogel.

Abstract
Quaternary-ammonium chitosan (QAC) is a polysaccharide with good water solubility, bacteriostasis, and biocompatibility. QAC is obtained by methylating or grafting the quaternary-ammonium group of chitosan and is an important compound in the food industry. Various QAC-based complexes have been prepared using reversible intermolecular interactions, such as electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, metal coordination, host-guest interactions, and covalent bonding interactions consisting of Schiff base bonding and dynamic chemical bond cross-linking. In the food industry, QAC is often used as a substrate in film or coating for food preservation and as a carrier for active substances to improve the encapsulation efficiency and storage stability of functional food ingredients. In this review, we have assimilated the latest information on QAC to facilitate further discussions and future research. Advancement in research on QAC would contribute toward technology acceleration and its increased contribution to the field of food technology.

Abstract
In this paper, amino-carboxymethyl chitosan (ACC) was prepared through amino carboxymethylation, which introduces -COOH and -NH2 groups to the chitosan (CS) chains. Meanwhile, dialdehyde starch (DAS) was produced by oxidizing corn starch using sodium periodate. To attain the optimal loading and long-time release of ε-polylysine (ε-PL), the ACC/DAS hydrogels were synthesized through the Schiff base reaction between the amino group on ACC and the aldehyde group in DAS. The molecular structure, microcosmic properties, loading capacity, and bacteriostatic properties of the four types of hydrogels containing different mass concentrations of ACC were investigated. The results showed that the dynamic imine bond C=N existed in the ACC/DAS hydrogels, which proved that the hydrogels were formed by the cross-linking of the Schiff base reaction. With the increasing mass concentration of the ACC, the cross-sectional morphology of the hydrogel became smoother, the thermal stability increased, and the swelling behavior was gradually enhanced. The tight network structure improved the ε-PL loading efficiency, with the highest value of 99.2%. Moreover, the loading of ε-PL gave the hydrogel good antibacterial properties. These results indicate that ACC/DAS hydrogel is potential in food preservation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Previous studies showed that selective bladder-sparing approach using TMT is an established therapy of MIBC with outcomes that are comparable to those of radical cystectomy. However, it has been shown that the 5-year local recurrence in the bladder is greater than 40% after TMT. One of the possible reasons was that the RT dose to the bladder tumor or tumor bed was insufficient. Thus, we assessed the effectiveness and safety of Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) boost to bladder tumor or tumor bed for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 59 consecutive patients with cT2-4 bladder cancer underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). TURBT was visibly complete in 25 cases. Patients received SABR to the tumor or tumor bed in the bladder followed by conventionally fractionated RT (CFRT) to pelvis and total bladder with concomitant weekly radio-sensitizing chemotherapy. During SABR intravesical installation of isovolumetric saline through urinary catheter ensured adequate bladder filling. Response rate was assessed by cystoscopic evaluation and pelvic MRI or CT. Toxicities were reported per the RTOG acute and late Radiation Morbidity Scoring Schema. RESULTS The median age of all patients was 76 years (35-90 years). All patients completed SBRT boost and 61% patients received concurrent Gemcitabine chemotherapy. After a median follow-up time of 28 months, the rate of local control (LC) at 3 years was 90.0%. The overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates at 3 years were 61.6% and 77.5%, respectively. Of the surviving patients, 84.4% have a disease-free and functioning bladder. Acute grade 3 gastrointestinal (GI) or genitourinary (GU) toxicities occurred in only 1.7% of the patients. Late grade 3 GU toxicity occurred in 5.1% of the patients. No patients experienced grade 4 GI or GU toxicities. CONCLUSION SABR boost followed by chemoradiation to the pelvis was found to be a well-tolerated and effective treatment for MIBC patients who are either not candidates for cystectomy or who desire bladder preservation. Randomized study is required to further evaluate this novel tri-modality treatment paradigm.

Abstract
Hafnia species can cause food spoilage via the quorum-sensing (QS) system. Thus, strategies that target QS in these bacteria might be a good approach to safeguard the quality of processed food. In this study, the amino acid sequence of the LasI Ha protein, a key QS regulator from Hafnia alvei H4, was used to construct its 3D structure for the virtual screening of potential QS inhibitors (QSIs) from the Bioactive Compound database. Four potential QSIs were obtained, and these were all theaflavins (TFs). Among them, theaflavin-3,3´-digallate (TF3) was found to outperform the others, displaying a higher docking score according to molecular docking analysis, and required only a sub-minimal inhibitory concentration (31.25 mM) to cause a significant decrease in the production of the autoinducer N-acyl homoserine lactone in H. alvei H4 and up to 60.5% inhibition of its motility. Furthermore, molecular simulation results indicated that TF3 could stably bind to a cavity within LasI Ha to form stable hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with various key residues of the protein to exert the inhibitory effect. Thus, TF3 may be considered a potential compound to protect against food spoilage caused by H. alvei H4 via the quorum quenching. IMPORTANCE Hafnia alvei, the main strain studied in this paper, is often isolated from spoiled foods, especially refrigerated protein-based raw foods, and is generally considered to be a spoilage bacterium whose spoilage-causing properties may be closely related to its own very strong population-sensing activity, so the strategy of quorum quenching against H. alvei H4 may be a good way to guarantee the quality of processed foods. Given the current global requirements for food safety and quality, coupled with negative consumer perceptions of the excessive inclusion of synthetic chemicals in food products, the use of natural compounds as QSIs in the storage of aquatic food products would seem more attractive.

Abstract
To develop food packaging with good antibacterial activity and mechanical performance, four amino carboxymethyl chitosan (ACC)//dialdehyde starch (DAS) /polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films were prepared by Schiff base and hydrogen bond interactions for efficient loading and release of ε-polylysine (ε-PL). The effects of the Schiff base reaction on the physicochemical properties of the films were explored based on the different aldehyde group contents in DAS. The ACC//DAS4/PVA film exhibited a tensile strength of 62.5 MPa, and the water vapor and oxygen permeability was 8.77 × 10-3·g·mm/m2·d·kPa and 0.15 × 103·cm3·mm/m2·d, respectively. By leveraging the Schiff base reaction, the film swelling properties were improved by adjusting the cross-link density, mesh size, and molecular mass between the cross-links. The ACC//DAS4/PVA film could efficiently load ε-PL with a value of 98.44% and long-term release in a food simulant of 10% ethanol at 25 °C for 120 min. Moreover, the ACC-ε-PL//DAS4/PVA film was successfully used for salmon preservation.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the synergistic effects of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) and resveratrol (RS) on Listeria monocytogenes and their application in chicken meat preservation. BITC combined with RS (BR) significantly enhanced the antimicrobial activity and inhibited the growth of Listeria monocytogenes within 24 h compared to individual treatment, as well as suppressing bacterial swimming and swarming motility, reducing biofilm formation by 56.4%, increasing cell membrane disruption, and inducing intracellular ROS surges. Synergistic effects were associated with the inhibition of biofilm formation, cell membrane destruction, and ROS production. Biofilm removal facilitated the direct antimicrobial action of BR. RS disrupted cell membrane permeability, allowing more BITC into the cells, resulting in increased intracellular antibacterial levels, cell membrane hyperpolarization, and rapid ROS accumulation. Furthermore, BR visibly slowed the microbial growth in chicken flesh stored at 25 °C and 4 °C. Therefore, BR is expected to be a new strategy for food preservation.

Abstract
The removal of organic dyes and pathogenic bacteria from contaminated water remains a significant challenge. In the present study, S-type heterojunction Ag2MoO4/ZnFe2O4 (AMO/ZFO) composite nanofibers were synthesized by electrospinning and co-precipitation and fabricated into photoanodes. It is found that the constructed S-type heterojunction of AMO/ZFO composites effectively inhibits the recombination of photogenerated carriers, in addition to the benefits of more exposed active sites and a greater specific surface area. When several properties are improved, AMO/ZFO composites exhibit excellent photoelectrocatalytic performance. The results demonstrate that under visible light irradiation, the photoelectrocatalytic degradation rate of AMO/ZFO-3 to methylene blue reached 76.2% within 50 min, and the killing rate of Salmonella was 83.6% within 80 min. The enhanced photoelectrocatalytic activity was due to the synergy of both electrochemical and photocatalytic effects. More importantly, after four testing cycles, AMO/ZFO-3 still has a better ability to kill pathogenic bacteria and degrade organic dyes due to its high stability. This work provides a feasible method for oxidizing organic dyes and pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
The 3-(Methylthio) propyl isothiocyanate (MTPITC)-loaded inclusion complex prepared by α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) was incorporated into chitosan (CS) film to fabricate a packaging material for fresh chicken meat preservation. Scanning electron microscope images indicated homogenous dispersion of the MTPITC-α-CD in CS polymer. Fourier-transform infrared and X-ray diffraction techniques revealed that MTPITC-α-CD was incorporated into the CS film matrix by the physical interactions. The introduction of MTPITC-α-CD improved the UV-vis light-blocking ability, with a slight loss of transparency. Although the water solubility and water vapor barrier capacity were not significantly influenced by the addition of MTPITC-α-CD, the antioxidant attribute was significantly enhanced. The CS-MTPITC-α-CD film displayed obvious and sustained suppressive effects against Salmonella typhimurium, with the inhibition zone diameters of 14.7 mm at 12 h and 7.3 mm at 24 h, respectively. Moreover, the quality index analysis indicated that the CS-MTPITC-α-CD film-wrapped fresh chicken, during refrigerated storage, exhibited better preservative efficacy than the control groups, with the total viable counts of 6.5 Log CFU/g, total volatile base nitrogen of 8.4 mg/100 g, pH of 6.6, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances of 0.2 mg/kg, and the sensory score of 5 at day 16. Collectively, these results suggest that CS-MTPITC-α-CD film is a prospective packaging candidate for delaying the quality deterioration of chicken meat.

Abstract
This work overcomes the long-standing challenge of cumbersome pretreatment methods in the detection of heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs). A UiO-66/nanocellulose composite aerogel (CMC-CNC-UiO-66) with layered pores and low density prepared by a self-cross-linking method is applied as a simple and rapid adsorbent for capturing 14 HAAs via strong electrostatic interactions, van der Waals force, and the steric effect. The adsorption capacity of CMC-CNC-UiO-66 to 14 HAAs reached 98.00-188.00 nmol/mg at equilibrium within 10 min. The adsorption and desorption abilities of CMC-CNC-UiO-66 were retained with values of 93.36 and 97.34% after two cycles. In the meantime, the kinetics study demonstrated the chemisorption between HAA molecules and CMC-CNC-UiO-66 due to the excellent agreement with the pseudo-second-order adsorption models. The fit with the Freundlich isotherm models suggested a multilayer adsorption mechanism between HAA molecules and materials with heterogeneous surfaces. Moreover, coupled with the ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry detection, the CMC-CNC-UiO-66 extraction process can be completed with a high average recovery ranging from 86.68 to 115.33%, indicating a potential application of CMC-CNC-UiO-66 in HAA adsorption for further quantitative analysis.

Abstract
To improve gas sensing performance of SnO2 sensor, a heterostructure constructed by SnO2 and SnSe2 is designed and synthesized via hydrothermal method and post thermal oxidation treatment. The obtained SnSe2/SnO2 composite nanoparticles demonstrate a special core-shell structure with SnO2 nanograins distributed in the shell and mixed SnSe2 and SnO2 nanograins in the core. Owning to the promoted charge transfer effect invited by SnSe2, the sensor based on SnSe2/SnO2 composite nanoparticles exhibit expressively enhanced acetone sensing performance compared to the pristine SnO2 sensor. At the working temperature of 300 °C, the SnSe2/SnO2 composite sensor with optimized composition exhibits superior sensing property towards acetone, including high response (10.77-100 ppm), low theoretical limit of detection (0.354 ppm), high selectivity and good reproducibility. Moreover, the sensor shows a satisfactory sensing performance in trace acetone gas detection under high humidity condition (relative humidity: 70-90%), making it a promising candidate to constructing exhaled breath sensors for acetone detection.

Abstract
High levels of biogenic amines (BAs) in fermented food can present a health risk to consumers. Microorganisms that can reduce BAs are widely used in fermented foods. However, the mechanism by which microorganisms reduce BAs in foods has not been explored. In this study, we investigated how Staphylococcus nepalensis 5-5 (S. nepalensis 5-5), which was a BA-degrading strain isolated from fish sauce, could reduce BA accumulation in the fish sauce. High-throughput sequencing and HPLC methods were sequentially used to determine the microbial community structure and BA content in fish sauce with/without S. nepalensis 5-5. The results showed that S. nepalensis 5-5 might be a safe strain that could improve the flavor of fish sauce while still exhibiting good BA degradation ability under a high salt environment. The content of BAs in fish sauce inoculated with S. nepalensis 5-5 was significantly decreased compared with the control fish sauce, achieving maximal reductions of 15.74, 14.18 and 16.65% in putrescine, cadaverine and histamine accumulation, respectively. According to high-throughput sequencing data, S. nepalensis 5-5 reduced the abundance of the genera positively associated with BAs, while increasing the number of bacterial genera negatively correlated with BAs in the sample and changed the correlation between some genera and BAs via species interaction. In addition, analysis of amino acid metabolism showed that S. nepalensis 5-5 might use histidine to produce metabolites other than histamine, thereby reducing the production of BAs. These findings not only explained the mechanisms by which the BA level in fish sauce could be reduced but also provided a potential means to control BA production in the fish sauce during the fermentation stage.

Abstract
To achieve the rapid detection of Listeria monocytogenes, this study used aptamers for the original identification and built a photoelectrochemical aptamer sensor using exonuclease-assisted amplification. Tungsten trioxide (WO3) was used as a photosensitive material, was modified with gold nanoparticles to immobilize complementary DNA, and amplified the signal by means of the sensitization effect of CdTe quantum dots and the shearing effect of Exonuclease I (Exo I) to achieve high-sensitivity detection. This strategy had a detection limit of 45 CFU/mL in the concentration range of 1.3 × 101-1.3 × 107 CFU/mL. The construction strategy provides a new way to detect Listeria monocytogenes.

Abstract
In this study, high-throughput sequencing and culture-dependent and HPLC methods were used to investigate the contribution and regulation of biogenic amines (BAs) by dominant microorganisms during fish sauce fermentation. The results showed that the microbial composition constantly changed with the fermentation of fish sauce. Tetragenococcus (40.65%), Lentibacillus (9.23%), Vagococcus (2.20%), Psychrobacter (1.80%), Pseudomonas (0.98%), Halomonas (0.94%) and Staphylococcus (0.16%) were the dominant microflora in fish sauce. The content of BAs gradually increased as the fermentation progressed. After 12 months of fermentation, the histamine content (55.59 mg/kg) exceeded the toxic dose recommended by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Correlation analysis showed that dominant microorganisms have a great contribution to the accumulation of BAs. By analyzing the BA production capacity of dominant isolates, the accumulation of BAs in fish sauce might be promoted by Tetragenococcus and Halomonas. Moreover, four strains with high BA reduction ability were screened out of 44 low BA-producing dominant strains, and their influence on BA accumulation in fermented foods was determined. Results demonstrated that Staphylococcus nepalensis 5-5 and Staphylococcus xylosus JCM 2418 might be the potential starters for BA control. The present study provided a new idea for the control of BAs in fermented foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Foodborne illness caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) is generally associated with the consumption of seafood. Fish and other seafood can be contaminated with V. parahaemolyticus, natural inhabitants of the marine, estuarine, and freshwater environment. In this study, the antibacterial activities of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) against V. parahaemolyticus were investigated by both transcriptomic analysis and morphological verification. RESULTS Treatment with 1/8 minimum inhibitory concentration (1/8 MIC) BITC resulted in 234 upregulated genes and 273 downregulated genes. The results validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) revealed that the relative expression levels of the six genes VP0820, VP0548, VP2233, VPA2362, fliA and fliG were only 31.0%, 31.1%, 55.8%, 57.0%, 75.3%, and 79.9% of the control group, respectively. Among them, genes VP2233, fliA and fliG are related to flagella and VP2362 can regulate a protein relevant to biofilm formation. Morphologically, we verified that the swimming diffusion diameter of V. parahaemolyticus was significantly reduced by 14.9% by bacterial swimming ability, and biofilm formation was significantly inhibited by treatment with 1/8 MIC BITC by crystal violet quantification assay. CONCLUSIONS These results indicated that 1/8 MIC BITC had antibacterial effect on V. parahaemolyticus by inhibiting virulence gene expression related to flagella and biofilm.

Abstract
Active food packaging materials containing procyanidins (PC) exhibits outstanding antimicrobial activity, but PC is easy to be hydrolyzed by acid. A novel water-soluble chitosan (CS)-based copolymer was prepared to be used as a carrier to provide a pH-stable environment for loading PC. CS was copolymerized with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) via a coupling reagent-mediated approach. The CS-graft-PVA film exhibited a desirable PC encapsulation efficiency of over 95% and excellent long-term release sustainability, which was better than the conventional CS and CS-blend-PVA films. Moreover, CS-graft-PVA film had satisfactory mechanical properties and barrier properties, as well possessed a desirable antibacterial activity and biofilm inhibition against foodborne pathogenic microbes and spoilage bacteria. The film was also applied in the salmon muscle perseveration and showed a potential ability to prevent microorganism contamination and texture deterioration in 10 days. These results suggested that the CS-graft-PVA film has an excellent promise for future food packaging applications.

Abstract
Although inflammation is protective of the body, uncontrolled acute inflammatory reactions may inflict tissue damage and lead to chronic inflammation. There is a fast-growing research interest in mechanisms that mediate regression of inflammation and actions of anti-inflammatory factors. Studies of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mechanisms have uncovered roles for new lipid mediators, including lipoxins, resolvins, protectins, and maresins, collectively referred to as specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM). Maresins have recently been discovered and are biosynthesized from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) by macrophages and display strong anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving activities. Here, we summarize the actions and mechanisms of maresins in different diseases and suggest possible therapeutic uses.

Abstract
Quorum sensing (QS) is a widespread regulatory mechanism in bacteria used to coordinate target gene expression with cell density. Thus far, little is known about the regulatory relationship between QS and cell density in terms of metabolic pathways in Hafnia alvei H4. In this study, transcriptomics analysis was performed under two conditions to address this question. The comparative transcriptome of H. alvei H4 wild-type at high cell density (OD600 = 1.7) relative to low cell density (OD600 = 0.3) was considered as growth phase-dependent manner (GPDM), and the transcriptome profile of luxI/R deletion mutant (ΔluxIR) compared to the wild-type was considered as QS-mediated regulation. In all, we identified 206 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) mainly presented in chemotaxis, TCA cycle, two-component system, ABC transporters and pyruvate metabolism, co-regulated by the both density-dependent regulation, and the results were validated by qPCR and swimming phenotypic assays. Aside from the co-regulated DEGs, we also found that 59 DEGs, mediated by density-independent QS, function in pentose phosphate and histidine metabolism and that 2084 cell-density-dependent DEGs involved in glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and phenylalanine metabolism were influenced only by GPDM from significantly enriched analysis of transcriptome data. The findings provided new information about the interplay between two density-dependent metabolic regulation, which could assist with the formulation of control strategies for this opportunistic pathogen, especially at high cell density.

Abstract
Controlling the content of biogenic amines (BAs) is critical to guarantee the safety of fermented aquatic products. The degradation characteristics and application potential of amine-negative starter cultures (Virgibacillus halodenitrificans CGMCC 1.18601: G25, Virgibacillus pantothenticus CGMCC 1.18602: G38) screened from grasshopper sub shrimp paste (Gssp) were studied. The enzymes of the two strains G25 and G38 that degrade BAs were amine oxidases (AOs) located on their respective cell membranes. The conditions that promoted the AO activity of Virgibacillus spp. were NaCl concentrations 5–10%, temperature 37 °C, pH 7.0 and ethanol concentrations 0–2%. Safety assessments (antibiotic susceptibility, biofilm activity and hemolytic activity) indicated that Virgibacillus spp. do not present a risk to human health, and this isolate can be confidently recommended as safe starter cultures for the food industry. Then, the two strains were cultured separately as starters and applied to the Gssp to analyze their influence on the flavor and quality of the product. As far as the bad flavors in Gssp such as sulfur-organic and sulf-chlor were concerned, the response values in the starter groups by G25 and G38 were significantly reduced by 39% and 65%, respectively. For the ability of strains to degrade BAs in Gssp, G25 degraded 11.1% of histamine, 11.3% of tyramine, 15.5% of putrescine and 4.1% of cadaverine; G38 significantly degraded 10.1% of histamine, 21.8% of tyramine, 18.1% of putrescine and 5.0% of cadaverine. These results indicated that the selected species could be used as starter cultures for the control of BA accumulation and degradation in Gssp.

Abstract
The bacterial profiles of 63 grasshopper sub shrimp paste samples collected from seven typical regions around the Bohai Sea were investigated by high-throughput sequencing. Tetragenococcus muriaticus was found to be the prevailing species present in all the samples, and the presence of T. muriaticus also weakly correlated with the histamine content in the samples. Six T. muriaticus strains with low biogenic amine (BA)-producing ability and deficient in histamine production were identified and subjected to safety assessment. All six strains displayed weak resistance to fifteen known antibiotics as based on the Enterococcus breakpoint values. None of the strains exhibited hemolytic activity or biofilm formation. All strains exhibited were able to grow on MRS agar containing 21% NaCl and expressed amine oxidase and strain-specific proteases and lipases. Most of the strains exhibited acid production at 18% NaCl. Moreover, three of the strains (designated as SG, TS, and QH) with histamine degradation ability were inoculated into separate shrimp paste samples to determine their effect on BA accumulation. The results indicated that the addition of T. muriaticus to shrimp pastes not only led to a significant reduction of BA content in the pastes but also improved the flavor of the pastes. Consequently, these strains may be used as potential candidates for controlling the content of histamine in fermented foods.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions including obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and abnormal cholesterol, which increases the cardiovascular risk. Metabolic syndrome or obesity has been reported to provide systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. Increased epicardial fat volume is a manifestation of obesity or metabolic syndrome. Those systemic and local conditions related to obesity or metabolic syndrome have been linking to the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). The underlying mechanisms of obesity linking epicardial fat to AF progression have not been fully examined.
Purpose
To investigate the impact of obesity linked to epicardial fat on electrophysiologic and anatomical AF substrates.
Methods
Twenty dogs aged 3 years were divided into four groups (n=5 per each): normal diet for over 20 weeks (control group [median body weight: 12.0 kg]), rapid atrial pacing (RAP) for last 4–15 (median 8) weeks during a normal diet for the same period (RAP group [10.5 kg]), high-fat diet (HFD) maintained for over 20 weeks without RAP (MetS group [16.0 kg]), and RAP for last 4–12 (median 6) weeks during HFD maintained for 24 weeks (MetS-RAP group [17.0 kg]), respectively. Activation/voltage maps of the atria during sinus rhythm were created with Ensite NavX mapping system. The effective refractory period (ERP) at 5 left atrial (LA) and pulmonary vein (PV) sites (LA appendage [LAA], LA body, right and left superior PVs, and inferior PV), and AF inducibility by burst LAA pacing were determined. At study completion, hearts were excised for histopathological and gene expression analyses.
Results
The LA pressure was more significantly increased in MetS than the MetS-RAP, RAP, and control groups (22.5 [17–28.8] mmHg vs. 14.0 [10.5–16.3] mmHg, 10.5 [7.4–17.2] mmHg and 10.7 [9.6–13.5] mmHg, respectively, P<0.05). The LA/PV ERP at a basic cycle length of 400 ms was shorter in the MetS-RAP and RAP than MetS and control groups (118±39 ms and 122±44 ms vs. 136±18 ms and 155±39 ms, respectively, P<0.05). Short duration AF was more induced in the MetS and MetS-RAP than RAP and control groups (3 [0–5.5] sec and 2 [0.5–3.5] sec vs. 0 [0–4.5] sec and 0 [0–0] sec, P<0.05). Histological examinations showed the fatty infiltration extending from epicardial fat increased more in the Mets and Mets-RAP than RAP and control groups (Figure). The Fibronectin 1 and collagen I/III mRNA levels increased more in the MetS-RAP and AF than MetS and control groups.
Conclusions
AF vulnerability was associated with increased LA pressures and fibrofatty infiltration from epicardial fat in the MetS group, and with fibrofatty infiltration from epicardial fat with subtle fibrosis in the MetS-RAP group. This suggested that fibrofatty infiltration and epicardial fat plays an important role in AF pathogenesis in obese patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic values of the AJCC staging system for gastric cancer (GC-AJCC), the AJCC staging system for gastric neuroendocrine tumours (NET-AJCC) and the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) system for gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma and mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MA)NEC remain controversial. METHODS Data on patients with (MA)NEC from 21 centres in China were analysed. Different staging systems were evaluated by performing Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and calculating the concordance index (C-index) and Akaike information criterion (AIC). Based on three existing systems, a modified staging system (mTNM) was developed. RESULTS A total of 871 patients were included. In the GC-AJCC system, an overlap was noticed for pT2 and pT3 categories. Patients with stage IIIC disease had a similar prognosis to those with stage IV disease. The pT categories of the NET-AJCC system had a lower C-index and higher AIC than those of the other systems. In the ENETS system, there was a low proportion (0·2 per cent) of patients with stage IIIA and a high proportion (67·6 per cent) of stage IIIB disease. The mTNM system adopted the NET-AJCC pT and GC-AJCC pN and pM definitions, and was developed based on the ENETS stage definitions. The proportion of patients in each stage was better distributed and the mTNM system showed improved prognostic performance in predicting overall and disease-free survival. CONCLUSION The mTNM system offers more accurate prognostic value for gastric (MA)NEC than the AJCC or ENETS staging systems.

Abstract
As a good choice for food preservation, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have received much attention in recent years. In this paper, peptides derived from the turbot viscera hydrolysate were identified by ultraperformance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS), and the physicochemical properties and structural characteristics were analyzed by in silico tools. Furthermore, three cationic peptides with potential hydrophobicity and amphipathy were synthesized; their cytotoxicity, hemolysis, and antibacterial activities were investigated. In particular, Sm-A1 (GITDLRGMLKRLKKMK), a peptide with 16 amino acids, showed an outstanding antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by damaging the cell membrane integrity. Moreover, Sm-A1 was successfully loaded into hydroxyl-rich poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/chitosan (CS) hydrogel to improve the antibacterial activity and biofilm inhibition effect. PVA/CS+7.5‰ Sm-A1 hydrogel can satisfactorily protect the salmon muscle from the microbiological contamination and texture deterioration.

Abstract
The serp gene codes for a protease that is considered to be an important factor associated with quorum sensing (QS)-based food spoilage caused by microorganisms. In this study, we evaluated the effect of temperature (4-37 °C) and QS inhibitors on the production of N-acyl-L-homoserine lactones (AHLs) and relative expression of the luxR/I, as well as serp in Hafnia alvei H4. Production of AHLs and expression of luxR/I were found to reach maximum levels at 10 °C, suggesting that the QS system of H. alvei H4 might have higher activity at low temperatures; similar result was also obtained for serp expression. Mutants of H. alvei H4 deficient in QS were used to identify the regulation of QS on serp expression. Significant reduction (P < 0.05) in serp expression was found in the mutants ∆luxR, ∆luxI, and ∆luxR/I, with ∆luxI and ∆luxR/I showing greater reduction than ∆luxR. Minimum inhibition concentrations (MIC) of Benzyl isothiocyanate and 3-Methylthiopropyl isothiocyanate for H. alvei H4 were determined to be 7.813 and 15.625 mM, respectively. Furthermore, the expression of serp, as well as that of luxR and luxI, was significantly repressed (P < 0.05) by the two QS inhibitors at 1/8 MIC and 1/16 MIC, indicating that these inhibitors might repress serp expression through affecting luxR and luxI expression in H. alvei H4. The findings of this study, therefore, suggested that food spoilage caused by H. alvei could be controlled through the application of QS inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNAs are a group of gene expression regulators and some of which have been confirmed to be associated with acute viral myocarditis (VM). This study aims to find new biomarkers for VM diagnosis and explore the roles of miRNAs during the pathogenesis of VM. PATIENTS AND METHODS 23 patients with acute myocarditis and 12 controls were included in this research. The expression of 10 candidate miRNAs in the serum exosome was examined by qRT-PCR. The direct targets were predicted using bioinformatics tools and then confirmed by dual luciferase assay and immunoblotting. Levels IL-6 of cell culture supernatants were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Six weeks old male mice were injected intraperitoneally with Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) and then treated by miRNA inhibitors through tail vein injection. RESULTS Five miRNAs were found to have disturbed expression in the exosome and may have the potential to be used as biomarker for VM diagnosis. Meanwhile, the expression of miR-30a and -181d was also altered in the cells after CVB3 infection. We identified SOCS3 as a direct target of miR-30a and -181d. Furthermore, during CVB3 infection, up-regulated miR-30a and -181d are related to enhanced IL-6 level via modulating SOCS3 expression. miRNA inhibitors injection increased mice survival rate after CVB3 infection. CONCLUSIONS miR-30a and -181d contribute to the over-activated inflammatory response to viral infection of the heart during coxsackievirus infection.

Abstract
Background:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex polygenic autoimmune disease characterized by immune-system aberrations. Among several types of immune cells, T follicular helper (Tfh) cells promote autoantibody production, whereas T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells suppress Tfh-mediated antibody responses.(1)Objectives:To identify the characteristics of Tfr cells and to elucidate the mechanisms of conversion of Tfh cells to Tfr cells, we probed the phenotype of T helper cells in patients with SLE and underlying epigenetic modifications by cytokine-induced signal transducer and activators of transcription (STAT) family factors.Methods:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from SLE patients (n=44) and healthy donors (HD; n=26) were analyzed by flow cytometry. Memory Tfh cells were sorted and cultured under stimulation with T cell receptor and various cytokines. Expression of characteristic markers and phosphorylation of STATs (p-STATs) were analyzed by flow cytometry and quantitation PCR. Histone modifications were evaluated by chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results:The proportion of CXCR5+FoxP3+Tfr cells in CD4+T cells tended to increase (2.1% vs 1.7%, p=0.17); however, that of CD4+CD45RA-FoxP3hiactivated Tfr cells in Tfr cells was decreased (4.8% vs 7.1%, p<0.05), while CD4+CD45RA-FoxP3lownon-suppressive Tfr cells was increased (50.1% vs 38.2%, p<0.01) in SLE compared to HD. The percentage of PD-1hiactivated Tfh cells was significantly higher in SLE compared to HD (15.7% vs 5.9%, p<0.01). Furthermore, active patients had a higher ratio of activated Tfh/Tfr cells compared to inactive patients. In vitro study showed that IL-2, but not other cytokines such as TGF-β1, IL-12, IL-27, and IL-35, induced the conversion of memory Tfh cells to functional Tfr cells characterized by CXCR5+Bcl6+Foxp3hipSTAT3+pSTAT5+cells. The loci ofFOXP3at STAT binding sites were marked by bivalent histone modifications. After IL-2 stimulation, STAT5 directly bound on FOXP3 gene loci accompanied by suppressing H3K27me3. Finally, we found that serum level of IL-2 was decreased in SLE and that stimulation with IL-2 suppressed the generation of CD38+CD27+B cells by ex vivo coculture assay using Tfh cells and B cells isolated from human blood.Conclusion:Our findings indicated that the regulatory function of Tfr cells is impaired due to the low ability of IL-2 production and that IL-2 restores the function of Tfr cells through conversion of Tfh cells to Tfr cells in SLE.

Abstract
Biogenic amines (BAs) and microbial diversity are important factors affecting food quality and safety in fermented foods. In this study, the bacterial and fungal diversity in grasshopper sub shrimp paste taken at different fermentation times were comprehensively analyzed, while the pH, colony counts, salinity, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N) and BA contents were quantitatively determined. In addition, the correlations among the samples with respect to microbial communities and the different parameters investigated especially BAs were also established. By combining the results of spearman correlation heatmap with the contents of BAs produced by the 102 halotolerant bacteria isolated from the grasshopper sub shrimp paste, six major genera of bacteria (Jeotgalibaca, Jeotgalicoccus, Lysinibacillus, Sporosarcina, Staphylococcus, and Psychrobacter) were found to be positively correlated with BA production level, suggesting that these bacteria might have a strong tendency to produce BAs. Other bacteria such as Lentibacillus, Pseudomonas, and Salinicoccus were considered as poor BA producers. The grasshopper sub shrimp paste was characterized by a relatively high abundance of Tetragenococcus, which was the dominant genus during the fermentation process, and it also produced a relatively high level of BAs but the spearman correlation heatmap revealed a negative correlation between T. muriaticus and BA level. Analysis of the species relevance network in grasshopper sub shrimp explained that the actual production of BAs by a certain strain was closely related to other species present in the complex fermentation system.

Abstract
Progressive supranuclear palsy - Richardson syndrome (PSP-RS) was first described in 1964 by Steele et al. Tau pathology has not been reported in the hypoglossal nuclei of PSP-RS patients, whereas Steele et al. described gliosis with no remarkable neuronal losses in the hypoglossal nucleus. This study aimed to investigate the distribution and degree of tau pathology-associated neurodegeneration, with an emphasis on the hypoglossal nucleus, in patients with PSP-RS. Six clinicopathologically proven PSP-RS cases were included in this study. All patients were clinicopathologically and immunohistochemically re-evaluated. This study confirmed the following neuropathological characteristics of PSP-RS: (1) neurodegeneration usually affects the striatonigral system and cerebellar dentate nucleus; (2) the cerebellar afferent system in PSP-RS is affected by absent-to-mild neurodegeneration; and (3) the extent of tau distribution throughout the central nervous system is greater than the extent of neurodegeneration. Furthermore, we found that subthalamic neurodegeneration was more prominent in the ventromedial region than in the dorsolateral region. Nevertheless, the tau pathology showed no remarkable differences between these two sites. Interestingly, the tau pathology was frequently observed in the hypoglossal nuclei of PSP-RS patients. Gradient neurodegeneration of the subthalamus and tau pathology in the hypoglossal nucleus could be regarded as essential pathological features of PSP-RS.

Abstract
AIM To report the initial experiences with functional cine magnetic resonance urography (cine MRU) and assess its usefulness as a novel postoperative evaluation method of ileal ureter substitution. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of 17 patients from who underwent cine MRU during June 2010 to December 2019 during their follow-up after ileal ureter substitution were collected. The cine MRU videos of reconstructive urinary tract were observed, and the luminal diameter, contraction ratio, peristaltic waves, and ureteral jets were measured. RESULTS Seventeen patients underwent cine MRU after ileal ureter substitution during their follow-up. Based on their cine MRU videos assessing the morphology and the peristaltic motility of the reconstructive urinary tract, there was resolution of preoperative hydronephrosis, which matched their ameliorative renal function. Clearly, peristaltic motility of the ileal graft was observed in 14 patients with obvious peristaltic waves and ureteral jets. CONCLUSION This study is the first to assess the clinical utility of functional cine MRU during the patient follow-up after ileal ureter substitution. Cine MRU is a radiation-free, non-invasive imaging method that can clearly show the morphology and the peristaltic motility of the ileal graft. Therefore, cine MRU, as a novel technique, will be extremely useful in the postoperative evaluation of patients after ileal ureter substitution.

Abstract
A hierarchical NiO-based nanostructure, constructed from multi-dimensional building blocks, was fabricated by a synthesis method based on electrospinning and solution phase reaction. Fe was incorporated into the NiO nanostructure with highly uniform distribution via ion exchange reaction. A series of Fe2O3/NiO composites with different compositions were successfully synthesized with the hierarchical architecture well preserved. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) were used to characterize the structure and to confirm the formation mechanism of the synthesized products. The gas sensing properties of the Fe2O3/NiO hierarchical composites were systematically investigated. The optimized composition of Fe2O3/NiO shows superior sensing performance towards ethanol, such as high sensitivity, fast response/recovery speed and good selectivity. The high gas sensing performance of the sensing material was mainly due to the completeness of the heterojunction assembly between n-type Fe2O3 and p-type NiO, as well as the amplification effect caused by assembling the heterojunctions on the nanoscale.

Abstract
Hafnia alvei H4 is a bacterium subject to regulation by a N-acyl-l-homoserine lactone (AHL)-mediated quorum sensing system and is closely related to the corruption of instant sea cucumber. Studying the effect of Hafnia alvei H4 quorum sensing regulatory genes on AHLs is necessary for the quality and preservation of instant sea cucumber. In this study, the draft genome of H. alvei H4, which comprises a single chromosome of 4,687,151 bp, was sequenced and analyzed and the types of AHLs were analyzed employing thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high resolution triple quadrupole liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Then the wild-type strain of H. alvei H4 and the luxI/R double mutant (ΔluxIR) were compared by transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq). The results indicate that the incomplete genome sequence revealed the presence of one quorum-sensing (QS) gene set, designated as lasI/expR. Three major AHLs, N-hexanoyl-l-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL), N-butyryl-l-homoserine lactone (C4-HSL), and N-(3-oxo-octanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C8-HSL) were found, with C6-HSL being the most abundant. C6-HSL was not detected in the culture of the luxI mutant (ΔluxI) and higher levels of C4-HSL was found in the culture of the luxR mutant (ΔluxR), which suggested that the luxR gene may have a positive effect on C4-HSL production. It was also found that AHL and QS genes are closely related in the absence of luxIR double deletion. The results of this study can further elucidate at the genetic level that luxI and luxR genes are involved in the regulation of AHL.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Third-generation drug-eluting stent (3rd DES) is commonly used now in percutaneous coronary intervention, and it has not only thinner struts, easier delivery than second-generation drug-eluting stent (2nd DES), but also abluminal biodegradable polymer. Clinical superiority of 3rd DES has been demonstrated compared to 1st and 2nd DESs. However, pathological response after 3rd DES implantation remains unclear.
Purpose
Pathological study of coronary artery after 3rd DES implantation have not been reported as far as we have referred to the previous studies. This study aimed to examine the initial tissue response after 3rd DES and 2nd DES implantation within one year.
Methods
Using specimens obtained by autopsy, we compared the histology between 3rd DES (n=3, 8 histological sections) and 2nd DES (n=6, 41 histological sections) lesions within 1 year after stent implantation to evaluate early tissue reaction. Stent segments were fixed with 10% buffered formalin and embedded in plastic, followed by hematoxylin–eosin, Masson's trichrome and elastica van Gieson. Ratio of covered stent struts by neointima was calculated. The thickness of neointima and the area of fibrin deposition were morphometrically evaluated. The degree of inflammation around struts was examined semi-quantitatively (score 0–3).
Results
The ratio of covered struts and thickness of neointima of 3rd DES were 0.84±0.04 and 68.2±10.3μm, while those of 2nd DES were 0.69±0.05 and 30.4±4.8μm respectively. The inflammation score was similar between two groups (1.00±0.14 vs. 1.02±0.16). The area of fibrin deposition around the struts was larger in 3rd DES compared with 2nd DES (1276.6±490.3μm2 vs. 658.0±173.4μm2). These results suggest that the 3rd DES may obtain prompt as well as rich covering of struts in the initial term after DES implantation. Although the biological feature of the polymers in 3rd and 2nd DESs is different, the inflammatory responses after both 3rd and 2nd DESs implantation were similar, at least within one year after deployment. The degree of inflammation was mild, less than approximately 50 inflammatory cells (score 1) around the struts.
Conclusions
Our pathological analysis showed advanced healing process in 3rd DES compared with 2nd DES lesions in the viewpoint of strut coverage by neointima. Observation of long-term pathological response may be required to evaluate the superiority of bioabsorbable polymer in 3rd DES.
